Jeff Zucker Speaks On The Business
June 18, 2009 by John Dugan
NBC Universal CEO Jeff Zucker continues to express an ambiguous outlook regarding NBC Universal’s digital initiative at the All Things Digital conference. It would give me some piece of mind if Mr. Zucker and other network executives just came out and said that they have no idea what Television’s future business model is, nor how to monetize new media on a relevant scale.
Top 3 points that Jeff Zucker made in the All Things Digital interview:
- NBC has no idea what the television business will look like in 5 years.
- NBC moved Jay Leno to prime time because they cannot come up with scripted programming to confidently compete with the three networks ahead of them.
- NBC is spending a ton of time and money on Hulu without any idea of how it will ultimately grow their bottom line.
